Looking for recommendations for what brand of tire to run on my pro-touring 69 Camaro. Looking for something that looks great and has good performance. Street use and I would like to try an autocross at some point just for the experience. What are you guys using?
The Nitto NT05 works great, plus it's 200 treadwear, in case you wanted to compete in some of the events that require such a thing. I've done a couple track days with them, and they grip excellently with no surprises. They are quite nice on the street as well--I haven't heard any excessive noise production. They don't even tramline much with square 315s . . .
I have not tried them in rain, as my car does not work in the rain.

agree that Nitto NT05 works great, always use them. I got a good kit, with this tire and car rim Enkei aluminum 16X6J . It looks great, and on the road will manifest itself in the best way. Accidentally picked it up a couple of years ago, and use until this day.

Street? Go with the PS4S realativly quite, looks good, performance is good enough for Porsche. The Rival or alike are sticky and throw lots of rocks and if ya got nice paint...........
I went with the NT-05 tire this year on my 69 Camaro. 3.90 gear with a T-56 6-spd.These hook really good but handle the turns incredibly well.Really impressed with the lateral traction and zero road noise.
